Over 2 000 years ago Hippocrates wrote: "Let your food be your
medicine and your medicine be your food. Each one of the substances
in a man's diet, acts upon his body and changes it in some way, and
upon these changes his whole life depends, whether he be in health,
in sickness or convalescent. To be sure, there can be little
knowledge more necessary." Now, as never before, we have to really
reconsider these wise words for in our modern fast-paced, stressed,
over-wrought and fear-filled lives, we are not coping and we are
not glowing with abundant health and well-being. With Healing
foods, prolific author Margaret Roberts brings nature's pharmacy
into our homes and into our lives. Step by step, and easily
accessible, she showcases the superfoods and warns of the danger
foods, and lists the ailments we suffer from, offering comforting
natural ways of correcting and rebuilding our health and regaining
our vitality. More than 150 common and lesser-known vegetables,
fruits, herbs, spices and other food plants that are the building
blocks of good health are described in full, covering aspects such
as: the plant's history and origin; instructions on how to grow the
plant; medicinal uses and major nutrients; ideas on how to include
the plant in the diet, along with recipes; cosmetic and household
uses and other interesting facts and hints. The book concludes with
an extensive A-Z list of ailments, with information on which danger
foods to avoid and which superfoods, supplements and other
therapies to consider to bring relief for each of the more than 100
common ailments discussed. This book is essential reading for each
of us in our quest for health and energy in an increasingly
stress-filled world.
